How can you get all doubtful about this and say the rope is not taught and that the rope isn't even reeled up at the pivot????? go to 0:38 then check 2:42 you dunces, the pivot has raised up, and you can see the nice coiling that is PERFECT - the rope is very taught, you are blind to now see that, especially for how tightly wrapped around the pivot it is. Did you expect it to be a wild messy loose coiling around the pivot? Come on, if you have the mind to do this, it's not going to be some slop job. The angle of the pivot is just-so in that it causes the rope to slide down constantly in towards the ice and in the process pull the pivot out as it coils around the pivot. Come on!!!!!!!! And if they are driving on ice it is OBVIOUSLY an ice/snow town that has it's feet well grounded in the utilization of technology with ice/snow. User your fcking heads!

My goodness, my words were unintelligible due to 2 auto-fills? Are you kidding me? You are that narrow minded to not understand because I made two obvious mistakes? You cannot see that "taught" obviously meant "taut", and "User" meant "Use". Just like all the other internet newfags that make an argument based off of spelling mistakes, as if it denotes the validity of it entirely and gives you some upper hand - when it's not about that at all. Great point there sir Mike, you disagree with my words or don't like that I have an opinion towards those that were calling this out as fake - so you call me out on two very blatantly obvious grammatical mistakes? Seriously? So I defended that this video is real, and you can only say my words go unreadable, because of TWO auto-fills, and you are too narrow minded to see the most obvious intended words using your programmed english syntax? If you're going to make an ass of me, at least have a genuine reason jackass.

I have to agree with H4, he's made an excellent point and you used grammar mistakes to make him seem like a moron. Mike, it's internet pedants like you that contribute absolutely nothing but go around acting like some esteemed intellectual because you are able to police everyone's words and use that to disprove them solely on the grounds of grammatical mistakes, dismissing any great points laden in their opinion. If you want to believe this video is fake, then go right ahead, but at least have the grounds to back it up with, and not just expect that pointing out grammatical errors makes you right, him wrong, or you any smarter.

and he wasn't being abusive, just brash, overly assertive. I can see why though - how can you call this fake? Even one not familiar with physics/engineering/mechanics can see this is not fake, unless your observational and picture memory are just utterly not there.

h4rk4t do not listen to him! He is trying to troll you do not take the bait!

I love how clear you made that! People are just thin skinned these days and can't take any criticism, even soft criticism (yours wasn't so soft, but still, this is the internet, how can you get so butt-hurt haha!)

I agree with Mike...................that h4rk4t made mistakes. But Mike, you're sillier than a chicken in a chicken suit to be unable to understand him because of those two mistakes. English must not be your native language :(

hhahaahhaha "no need to abuse people because they may not understand".

Just like there is no need to abuse certain people that don't understand why killing is bad.

Are you kidding me? He was being abusive? Go crawl under Obama's dick and keep sucking you little politically correct child. This isn't A Brave New World, this is a world where we speak our mind. Offending people is a necessary and healthy act... EVERY TIME YOU SAY SOMETHING THAT'S OFFENSIVE TO ANOTHER PERSON, YOU JUST CAUSED A DISCUSSION. YOU JUST FORCED THEM TO HAVE TO THINK.

KEYWORDS: FORCED THEM TO HAVE TO THINK.

If you can't grow some thicker skin to bare the offense, keep living your life with complete bliss and mindless contentment. No need to use your brain or opinions, or show passion in your words, just keep on chuggin' like the tool you are.

Even the rope is less in the end than in the beginning and the poll is higher. Taken the angel it's impossible togo up. The poll is just a "middel man" the pulling is done by a mechanical winch longer out..

Engine will be fine, if things were not left running. Electrics maybe.Needs some serious TLC though.

Doesn't look like an English car to me. Which make exactly? RHD yes. But then that includes Japan, Australia, India, South Africa, New Zealand, Malaysia and Australia I know of. Not Russia though. I As a point of fact there is too much ignorant opinion from people with no understanding through education and experience of what they write here. Pointless waste of time to scan though uninformed opinion.

Study the subjects involved and validate your data before you express an opinion. Everything is possible when you understand nothing.

In a world of Health & Safety , they would be unlikely to be able to use this method of getting it out . But then in this world of Health & Safety it is unlikely to have gone in to start with ! Love the ice bearing capstan .

how did the van go from 1/2 way up the posts to completely. It is tied off to the cross bar yet mysteriously climbs the wooden supports.... and where is the part where someone gets into the water to attach the cable from the crossbar to the vehicles undercarriage.....staged.....
